A Sign of The End Times
Now that election season is over, most of the campaign signs have been taken down. Yet while I was driving the other day, I saw some signs still up at the intersection of a few major roads. Wait a minute, those weren’t campaign signs they were signs promoting the End of the World.
The signs warned that Judgment Day was coming on May 21, 2011 and then directed people to listen to Family Radio WKDN 106.9 FM. Now, I have listened to Family Radio WKDN 106.9 FM before and as a former radio guy, I know all about this station. This was Harold Camping’s radio station.
In fact, in college, I used to go over to my friend Greg’s dorm room and listen to Camping warn everyone that Judgment Day was coming on September 23, 1994. Greg was a Christian and a believer in Camping’s prediction. I still talk to Greg every now and then and while Greg is still a wacko fundamentalist Christian who loves talking about the end of the world, he no longer is a follower of Harold Camping.
What I find ridiculously funny is that Harold Camping has made these predictions before and has been proven wrong and yet he continues to make them and he continues to have followers. I doubt very much that he flew to the Philadelphia area just to put up a few signs on the side of the road. He has followers who live in this area and they are putting up these signs for him. He also has a book out in which he lays out his twisted reasoning on this.
